Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 80 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Psoriasis patients

Who may be able to join

  • Male and female patients aged 18 - 80 years, body weight ≤ 180 kg
  • Dermatological diagnosis of psoriasis
  • Initiated therapy with TNFα-inhibitor agents (etanercept, adalimumab and infliximab)or fumaric acid ester (FAE) within the scope of routine patient care by treating physician
  • Signed informed consent from patient

Who cannot join

  • Patients with evidence of any skin condition that would interfere with the evaluation of psoriasis
  • Use of systemic anti-psoriatic drugs such as steroids, retinoids, methotrexate, cyclosporine within 30 days of Visit 1 or used FAE or other any biologic agent such as etanercept, infliximab and adalimumab within 12 weeks prior to Visit 1
  • Patients who are considered potentially unreliable or where it is envisaged the patient may not consistently attend scheduled study visits
  • Patients who are unable to complete a patient diary or complete questionnaires on paper
  • Patients with any other condition or prior/current treatment, which in the opinion of the investigator renders the patient ineligible for the study schedule
  • Pregnancy or breast feeding women
  • Women of child-bearing potential, defined as all women physiologically capable of becoming pregnant unless they use effective contraception during the study. Effective contraception is defined as either: use of established oral, injected or implanted hormonal

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Withdrawal of venous blood samplesOther

    Withdrawal of venous blood samples (approx. 20 ml) and 2 skin biopsies (5 mm)

    Laboratory measurements:

    Fasting serum concentrations of 200 metabolites covering a biologically relevant panel of amino acids, sugars, acylcarnitines and phospholipids Genome-wide expression profiles generated from RNA derived from peripheral leukocytes

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Analysis of metabolic profiles associated with treatment response

    The primary aim of this study is to analyze metabolic profiles as well as expression data in patients with chronic plaque psoriasis undergoing systemic treatment with TNF_-inhibitor agents (etanercept, adalimumab, infliximab) and fumaric acid ester (FAE) in order to identify clinical and metabolomic markers that underlie variability in response to therapy.

    Measured: week 0 and week 12

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Identification of metabolomic signatures associated with psoriasis

    The secondary aim is to identify metabolomic signatures associated with psoriasis and to identify possible treatment-specific metabolomic signatures.

    It is anticipated, to get insights into mechanisms of anti-TNF drug action and response as well as first indications for metabotypes that are associated with psoriasis. In addition, genetic variants correlated to these metabotypes might be identified.

    Measured: week 0 and week 12

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Psoriasis, run by Technical University of Munich at 1 site in Germany.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Oct 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Analysis of metabolic profiles associated with treatment response (time frame: week 0 and week 12). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Oct 2019.
